Zachary Frosch, MD of Penn Medicine @PennMedicine explains that more prospective data is needed to validate stratification of molecular risk in aggressive b-cell lymphoma. Diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) has become increasingly evident in recent years as not a single pathological entity. Wide-ranging diagnostic techniques such as immunohistochemical staining and fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) have helped to sub-categorize DLBCLs by their pathological characteristics and classify those associated with lower likelihood of cure with cyclophosphamide, doxorubicin, vincristine, and prednisone (R-CHOP) rituximab after typical first-line cure. This recognition has prompted expanded use of diagnostic testing to classify patients with high-risk severe…

According to GlobalData, a leading data and analytics firm, India-based Curadev’s March 2020 licensing agreement with Bayer for the discovery and production of novel interferon gene stimulators (STING) antagonists across indications with high unmet need indicates the importance of the STING mechanism for research by top pharmaceutical companies. As part of the partnership, Bayer acquires exclusive access to the software of novel STING antagonists. The firms will jointly develop new drugs for lung cancer, cardiovascular disease and other inflammatory diseases. In 2019 Curadev approved Takeda’s STING agonist software (CRD5500). Under the deal, in addition to research funding, Curadev will receive…
